[Land-speed] Bloodhound

[John Burk]

The goal was a traction and stability advantage . Mid engine , front wheel 
drive helps only stability but front engine gives both . The true ac is 7" 
behind the cg and the wings keep the rear wheels on the ground . The engine 
is tilted 30 deg to not block the drivers vision . On paper the wings have 
9# drag for 300# down force . The Doug Nash 5 spd is ahead of the inverted 
12 bolt drop out . The driveline goes under the spool  back to the v-drive 
and foreword to the pinion .
